Developed Economies Record Sharp Slowdown as Q3 GDP Growth Slips to 0.1%
GDP across major developed economies grew only 0.1% in the third quarter, a notable drop from the 0.3% expansion recorded in the previous period.

Persistent inflation in select markets also weighed on consumption and investment activity. 
Policy analysts believe that fiscal recalibration and improved digital resilience will be central themes in forthcoming economic strategies as countries assess vulnerabilities exposed during the recent quarter.
